Zahn-Type Dip Cups

Vicos­ity Cups

BYK-Gard­ner Dip Vis­cos­ity Cups (Zahn Type) may be used any­where – in shops, fac­to­ries and lab­o­ra­to­ries – for quickly check­ing and adjust­ing the vis­cos­ity of many dif­fer­ent types of liquids.

• Sim­ple and durable
• Range from about 20 to 1800 cen­tis­tokes
• Pre­ci­sion-drilled ori­fices
• Ori­fice diam­e­ters adjusted at the fac­tory for appro­pri­ate results with appli­ca­ble NIST trace­able New­to­nian oils

Each cup has a 12-inch loop han­dle to allow the cup to be dipped by hand into a liquid con­tainer. At the cen­ter of this han­dle is a fin­ger-ring for hold­ing the cup in a ver­ti­cal posi­tion dur­ing use. Results should be reported in Zahn-Seconds at a spe­c­i­fied tem­per­a­ture for a par­tic­u­lar cup. To con­vert Zahn-Seconds to cen­tis­tokes, refer to ASTM D 4212.
